Limits and Efficiency of Coding Against Synchronization Errors
Understanding the limits of reliable information transmission over noisy communication channels and designing efficient codes for such channels are major cornerstones of information and coding theory. Most techniques developed in this area in the last 75 years have been targeted at discrete memoryless channels, which have the property that the i-th received symbol is an independent noisy function of the i-th transmitted symbol only. As a result, sender and receiver are synchronized, greatly simplifying their analysis. The study of such channels has given rise to a rich theory with many important applications beyond their original motivation. The project's goal is to tackle fundamental…
